Ron Galella and his photo "Windblown Jackie" 10/4/1971

A few years ago, Tim Mantoani embarked on an amazing project using the legendary 20x24 Polaroid format camera. The finished product is a book full of super talented photographers holding their iconic shots that was just recently published. He wanted people to acknowledge and celebrate the incredibly talented photogs behind those well-known images that we are so familiar with, yet not many of us can name the photographers who took them. He also wanted to credit them for the amazing work they have done and let us know "that iconic photos don't just happen, that cameras didn’t make these photos, the photographers made them."

What a fantastic project, don't you think? It’s so lovely to match the person with the photograph that stirred so many emotions in all of us. Lovelies, what are your thoughts? xo

Love this! Did you ever see the documentary about Ron Galella, and his...well...obsession with Jackie? It was a great doc, a little disturbing and kind of sad but shed so much light into both these people.

I just love projects that represent the people who make great art. People know all of these pictures and yet it's awesome that this fellow made a book to tell you about the people who made these images we all know. It's a beautiful thing when creative people get noticed for what they have done in the world!
